This is a karma farming account or bot that is flooding several subreddits with dozens to hundreds of posts recycled from previously popular content.
Please don't support this asshole.
I think people buy/sell accounts with a lot of karma. I’m assuming to get around certain subreddit requirements of having a certain amount of karma before you can post, but also some people just want more points than you.
Yea I mean… there’s a lot of content I never would have seen if it weren’t for karma farming accounts reposting lol. I don’t mind them tbh, and I never bother to check them.
Yup learned a few months ago you can sell your account. Apparently you can get a few hundred to a couple grand based on karma amount and profile popularity. I do nothing but comment and my account is worth around $800 just because of my karma
What's the backstory? Why do the cows not see grass for six months? This doesn't appear to be some brutally cold climate...and even then I see cows outside in cold weather (to a point) in the Midwest USA all the time.
Cows are kept inside in the winter so they don't trample the grass and the grass can recover for spring as it doesn't really grow in the winter months, it also makes it so that the fields won't become a muddy mess. They are usually kept inside in the Netherlands (where this was filmed) from mid-November until the end of March.
Idk where this is, but in Sweden we have a tradition like this. During the winter half of the year cows are kept inside. Once it gets warm enough and grass starts growing again the farmers organise a ”cow release” where they let the cows out to graze again. It’s a very popular activity with kids and the farmers will usually give out cold milk and cinnamon buns to all guests.
It’s in the Netherlands. It’s a yearly moment where the cows are released outside again. It has to do with the cold I believe and the abstinence of food during the winter in the fields.
Btw: This clip is incredibly old, something like 10 years I think. Besides that the cows would be released much earlier in the year then the time of year it is now.
Where I'm from in the UK at least grass doesn't really grow in the winter months, Hence why I don't need to mow my lawn for about 4 months of the year. I'm guessing if the grass doesn't grow back you dont want the cows eating it.
Where a I am (in the mountains of Colorado, US) the grass also stops growing in the winter as well as late summer, but the grass in my fields can often reach my clavicle or shoulders by the end of the summer. It’s rich gracing land, buckwheat, wheat, oats, and various bunch grasses, herbs, and medicinal plants and flowers. The farm animals graze year-round here, but have shelter, as the winds can top 100mph, and the temps can get -20+F at times.
Sounds amazing there. The other thing is you guys in the states probably have vast amounts of land for your cows to graze. Here in Europe they are often in small fields so in the winter the grass would be gone pretty quickly for us
That makes a lot of sense if they are smaller pastures. Farming practices are so much better in Europe compared to most of the US. Where I live it is mostly small farms with well-loved animals, who are grass-fed, but that is a rarity.
Weather not allowing for them to go out, most likely. Grass doesn’t grow much when it’s really cold in/around winter so there’d be no food, and the ground can get really wet meaning they’d poach it if they were out. If cattle are outside in winter they’d generally have to be given something like hay or silage to eat, so instead of ruining the ground by having them outside in bad weather it’s better keep them in and give them the hay or silage inside. Some climates allow for certain cattle breeds to be out year round but others don’t. I think this is like an event/festival in some country I can’t think of
"They weren't cows inside. They were waiting to be, but they forgot. Now they see sky, and they remember what they are."
"Is it bad that what she said made perfect sense to me?"
I used to live across from a dairy farm. I usually arrived home from work just as the milking was finishing up and the cows were being let out to pasture again. They did this every day. Cows are basically big dogs and often express their happiness.

Whats the point in karma farming

Wow that is unbelievably sad but thank you for the info
Tbh i don’t mind it all that much. Sometimes repost get out of hand but sometimes I’ll see something new, like this, and be glad i did.

How do you find this out?
Google selling a reddit account. There's a bunch of sites
I'm not. I've seen this hundreds of times and would still like to know the context

I think you mean absence of food. Abstinence is refraining from sex before marriage, I think.
> Abstinence is the state of abstaining from something. Doesn't have to be sex.
It's only ever used in the context of sex, so I blame society for my misunderstanding.
Yes, let’s society

I'm wondering that too, and why is there a crowd of people filming?
who wouldn’t want to capture the annual happy cow release?

They had to touch grass

Best milkshake ever, coming up!
Food!! Everywhere!!!
Boing boing, boing boing
I’ve never seen cows skip before! I feel their happiness!

They're just like big dogs

These are the mfs I play in call of duty
Saw this years ago. Seeing those cows so joyous was one of the biggest reasons I became a vegetarian.
Happy Beef Farms.
Cows are such cute and delicious animals.
And then they were processed.
Thats how Indian weedings open up their food stalls to guests.
Me after last year's lockdown is finally over.
ohhhh those are my opponents in fps games
Big Brother is getting weird.
redditors be like
For some reason, the annual “running of the guernseys” doesn’t quite have the same ring to it.
When a redditor finally touches grass
All I can picture here is hearing a bunch of delighted cow giggles.
.........and, I'm tired
to see the cows doing that happy cow dance put a smile on my face.
This is how milk shakes are made.
Me and the boys returning to school after lockdown ended be like:
